...whimper...

i went to school today. i didn't go in yesterday because i just couldn't get up. exhausted, weary, and still slightly congested with a low grade headache that just lingers. i could have gone back to the doctor, but korean doctors never seem to beleive that there's anything wrong with me. so, i went to school. it was a long day. i told all of my classes that i was sick and wasn't feeling well, so please be on your best behaviour today, and most of them were. if they started acting up i just sighed really loudly, closed my eyes, rubbed my forehead, and waited for them to settle down on their own. it worked for the most part. a couple of time my co-teacher had to get them to quiet down, especially since there is no way i can raise my voice at present.

i'm just worried about tomorrow. five classes. i know to some of you it doesn't sound like much, but it is when there are forty students in each one of them. 40x5=200 students to control. it's not easy at the best of times, but when you feel like crap it's a million times worse. so, i'm not going out for 'mini weekend' tonight... but hopefully i'll be feeling well enough to do a little socializing on the actual weekend as i'm missing my friends and just being out with other waegooks... oh to speak english to an english speaker... sorry this is such a lame post.

liz - poor thing! I hope you feel better for your five-class day, it's exhausting to have that many classes when you're healthy, let alone sick!

are you still coming to tongyeong this weekend? chris is joining in the fun, can you believe he's gone in less than a month???!!!
